Como Stuns Juventus: Can They Repeat Shock Victory?
21 Feb
Summary
- Juventus faces Como with multiple key players suspended or injured.
- Como's Nico Paz, instrumental scorer, is suspended for this match.
- Both teams are in the top six, but recent form shows struggles.
The Allianz Stadium will host a Serie A fixture between Juventus and Como this Saturday afternoon. Juventus is facing considerable squad challenges, with defender Pierre Kalulu suspended and Emil Holm sidelined by a calf injury. Gleison Bremer's availability is uncertain following a thigh issue, while Arkadiusz Milik and Dusan Vlahovic remain unavailable.
Como also faces player absences, as Edoardo Goldaniga and Assane Diao are doubtful. Crucially, Nico Paz, who has been vital to Como's season with nine goals and six assists, is suspended due to accumulated yellow cards. Alvaro Morata is expected to lead Como's attack in Paz's absence.
Juventus's recent performance has been inconsistent, with back-to-back defeats, including a 5-2 loss to Galatasaray in the Champions League play-offs. They currently sit fifth in Serie A with 46 points from 25 matches.
Como secured a 1-1 draw against AC Milan in their last outing, but they are winless in their last three league games and four across all competitions. They are sixth in the table with 42 points from 25 matches.
The match will be streamed live on DAZN and the DAZN Amazon Channel in the UK.
